BC Housing supports more than 100 transition houses and safe homes for women — with or without children — who are at risk of violence, or who have experienced violence.
The programs provide women and children with a temporary place to stay, support services, referrals and assistance in planning next steps.
Eligibility

- Women younger than 19 who are living independently may also be eligible for services. If you are under 19 years of age, connect with a transition house program for further details.
Language
- Services are available to women who speak any language.
- Language should not be a barrier to a woman seeking help.
